For some context with Taz, he had many injuries during his time in ECW (Especially with the botched Pile-driver he suffered during that time), and he later decided to become a Color-commenter after retiring his In-ring work. His backstage attitude didn't help either, once the invasion storyline started, he then became Steve Austin's punching bag.

An old school one that I'm kind of surprised didn't make the list: King Kong Bundy. In 1986, he's facing the Hulkster in the main event of WrestleMania 2. one year later, he's at WrestleMania III working a comedy match in the midcard with hilbilly Jim and midget wrestlers. He was the premier monster heel facing the champion for the title and a year later he's in joke match on the biggest show of the year.

Saturn got the Mopie gimmick as a punishment for going crazy in the ring and violently attacking a jobber during a match. Yes, the jobber screwed up royally and nearly ended Saturn's career. But Saturn's response was way too over the top. WWE might have given him a real chance, but Saturn blew it.

I remember Perry Saturn being presented strongly for quite a while, European Champion, Terri as a manager, hardcore matches - even a random match on Heat against HHH in which he looked strong - (most likely I think because he had the same trainer as Helmsley). His downfall was pretty much his own fault due to injuring others and substance abuse issues. Dean Malenko's quality shone, however putting him with the cruiserweights was the wrong decision as fans watched those matches to see high flyers and cruiserweights had always been underutilised in WWF.

Some extra info for some of these. Steiner was injured during his WWE return, hense his god awful performances especially in those 2 Triple H matches where his injury was at a all time high. Perry Saturn got buried because he intentionally injured Mike Bell during a match on heat. Amore & Cass got buried because they had backstage heat with the locker room (Amore) & management (Cass). Alex Riley had heat with John Cena, so he got buried for it. DDP had heat with the Undertaker, so he got buried for it.

In my opinion taz’s size and that whole backstage controversy about him having a attitude about other wrestlers using suplex’s and saying how he was the only one who is supposed to do it derailed his wwe run luckily most people remember taz in the wwe when he debuted at the royal rumble 2000 against kurt angle or his run as a commentator.

Size had nothing to do with it, Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio, Bryan Danielson, C.M. Punk, The Miz, Chris Jericho are all smaller guys that have been Champions & destined to be hall of famers if they're not already. Rey Mysterio is shorter than Taz & smaller in stature & is definitely going to be a Hall of famer, no question. I believe Taz should be in the hall based off his career. There are lesser talents in the hall, guys that never won World Heavyweight Championships in any promotions. I believe Sabu as well should be inducted to the h.o.f. How many World Championships did Sting win in WWE & he's in the h.o.f. WWE politics is what kept most of these guys back. & really WWE watered down Taz. In ECW Taz was suplex city & who did he seriously injure with his variety of Tazplex's. WWE wasn't worried about Brock Lesnar dumping dudes on their heads. Taz wasn't even using suplexes after that debut match with Kurt Angle & if he was it was scaled back (watered down). But since Vince (McMahon) didn't create these ECW guys he never had plans to push these guys. He treated most of them like s#!+. Rob Van Dam, Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio & The Dudley Boys were so over when they came to WWE that it was undeniable that they would eventually get their push. All are or will be in the h.o.f. Benoit won't for obvious reasons but would have been had he not did what he did.

I liked Jinder as a champion and am sad they bunked him soon after. Enzo and Cass simply weren‘t that good, but Enzo could speak. This is what the duo was all about. The release of both had their reasons because of their actions outside the ring. Sanity is a great example in your list how Vince gave nothing about most that came from NXT. He hasn‘t understand the building and threated everyone as a new guy in WWE. The destruction of Taz, the Suplex Machine, was an other thing i didn‘t understand back then. One guy i miss on your list is EC3. He was presented as the next big thing (in his second coming) but then gets dropped like a hot potato without any reason named.

In case of Steiner, he got in a Feud with Triple H, the Son in Law of the "Law" in WWE, so he suffered. They made him look bad. Malenko was one of the most technical wrestlers in WCW. So in short, whoever competed with Cena and Triple H was wasted. And Tazz, oh man what a waste of Talent!

WWE needed to buy out WCW, but keep the brand separate. They royally screwed that up. I watched WWE regularly at that time & never really watched WCW. What WWE failed to understand is, it's not that the WCW guys weren't good, many of them were great. BUT, as a WWE fan, I was largely unfamiliar with the WCW guys--at least as far as their character went. I was invested in WWE & those were the guys I was familiar with. I loved Benoit, the Guerreros, DDP, Booker T, etc, but needed time to get used to them. They just murdered the entire brand. Bought WCW, tried to merge those guys into WWE overnight, & then cut 95% of them, so WCW fans had no where to go. SMH. Keep the brand, restructure it & cut back a little if needed, but don't just shut it down. What a botch job.

Yeah, I miss DDP a lot. Page was great... his WCW run should have been repeated in WWE, but Vince is a petty idiot. Taz was great in ECW and WWE misused him, but I think he was pretty badly injured around that time, so it may not be all Vince's fault. Probably mostly is, though...

DDP WWE career was a punishment. Dude was the best wrestler in WWE at the time but they decided to punish him for being a WCW guy like every other WCW wrestler at the time.

What WWF/E did to Tazz was an insult and now they are interested in sign his son, Hook. "It was a different time, you can't compare" but Vince/HHH still in the company and also for what? to be a comedy joke like his father, lackluster feuds and waste his potential being so young? No, thanks.

Funny enough about number 10, steiner was fine in the indies and tna after wwe so what if it was wwe that was the problem. It's always this way though, blame the talent in wwe because wwe tried to monopolize pro wrestling so nobody knows most of these flops were very successful outside and after wwe
